First published: 2026-09-15T18:05:16+00:00. Completeness: unknown.Measures 1–8 set a high, sharply accented upper figure against rising bass arpeggios. The upper notes repeat and shift chromatically before a short chordal pause. Measures 9–19 replace the arpeggios with repeated compact chords above a moving bass. The block chords grow louder, then end on a held, quieter sonority.Measures 20–29 bring back the upper figure in a higher register with more chromatic chords and fuller bass movement. A sparser passage in measures 30–37 leads into strong repeated chords.Measures 38–45 turn to a softer, more lyrical line over lighter chordal accompaniment. Measures 46–57 alternate brief rests and rising upper notes with increasingly full chords.Measures 58–66 reach a high-register climax, then descend in a long chromatic run that settles into short, quiet phrases. Measures 67–74 restore the opening arpeggiated bass and accented upper figure for the close.
